Gnosticism & Christian Mysticism

The Mystical Sources of German Romantic Philosophy

by Ernst Benz · Blair R. Reynolds and Eunice M. Paul (trans.)

A short classic by the German church historian tracing how the theosophy of Boehme, Oetinger and Baader shaped the thought of Schelling, Hegel and the Romantics. Benz argues that the language of German Idealism cannot be understood without its roots in Protestant mystical speculation.
